I think, from a programming standpoint, that pillaging the resource tile would be the way to check. It would be much easier to program "is there a road/colony/city on the tile" compared to "is it connected to a city."

The algorithm for being connected to a city already exists (as shown by the F2 screen). I have no knowledge of the actual code, but using that would be the most logical way to program it IMO. Of course, if alva is right, it doesn't matter.
